Fines levied against:

Pedro -$ 50,000
Manny - 20,000 (?)
Garcia - ? (deserves it)
Zimmer - 5,000 (deserves it)
Clemens - 00,000

Anyone think Roger is still guilty and Manny was right ?

And Pedro ? What an angel he eneded up being....

Uh, actually, no I don't. I think Manny went out there expecting to get drilled, and bailed on the first high pitch he saw. His head was practically between his knees when the pitch was caught---eye high but over the plate. He had no idea of the location of that pitch, he bailed on it as soon as it left Clemens' hand and he saw it was coming in high.

I kind of baited that question Mike.

Look who got the largest fines. That pretty much tells you what MLB thought about it.

Tonight should be a nervous match

Beach, don't ya think a fine of only 5 or 10 thou woule be like a parking ticket to a guy that makes the coin Pedro does? 50 just puts it in line to make it matter a little more.

Wow - what a contrasting view of what I read on other (Pro-Yankee) boards. This further proves my suspicion about plenty of Yankee fans.

Slip,

Ya you are correct. Big bucks get the big fines and the rest flows downhill.

Thanks for enlightening my slanted NY bias.

Ok. 2-2. 3rd inning. 3-0 The evil empire.
